Lightweight and strong, carbon fibre reinforced polymer (CFRP) is increasingly being used in aeroplane and ship structures as well as wind turbine blades and high-tech bicycles. Its growing use has also highlighted the need to develop waste disposal methods of end-of-life plastic and CFRP components. The question is how to recycle efficiently and without harming the environment. The EU-funded Repair3D project will develop reclamation and repurposing routes. It will implement advanced nanotechnology solutions, additive manufacturing and recycled resources for the production of high-added-value 3D-printed products. By harnessing the potential of eco-design and allowing for integration of smart intrinsic self-sensing, self-repairing and recycling options, the project will create a distributed recycling process that can be implemented at local scale.
